    Any experience with alternatives to the Event Viewer?


    I'd like to be able to:


    1. Search for every instance of an event
    2. Delete individual events


    I've read about these apps:




    Please give your experiences with these apps or similar ones and list any things that you'd like Event Viewer to do.

    I've used Nir Sofer's MyEventViewer for years for its ability to mix different logs together so I can search just by time/date across multiple logs. (IMO it's just nuts not to be able to do that natively within Event Viewer without having to create a cumbersome Custom View.)

    I suggest you try his newer FullEventLogView (always use Run as administrator) and become familiar with all the Advanced Options (F9) available. It's just a shame there's no Logs menu item (like MyEventViewer) to quickly select/deselect the logs you're interested in.

    Hope this helps...
